many thanks for all the cc for a palette of colour to annette for her user award and all the pm's i've had they are all so very very much appreciated Wink

Glad to hear you feel on the mend, Andy......take care.
And what a fab sunset to come back with, very well composed as always and with the light reflecting so nicely in the f/g watercourse.
I am wondering if you had tue camera on tripod with a time lapse and that the figure is yourself?

Welcome back Andy and I hope your eyes are completely better. I love this thoughtful image; it conveys so much with that figure looking out in that wonderful light and the stream winding its way into the distance. Super tones and all round excellent image.

So pleased to see you back with us and hadn't realised you'd been having eye problems. Hope all goes well and again, delighted to see you and your images featuring once more.
